Hi Jane,

 

I took a book out of MH library recently called The Leicestershire Graziers, written by A.M. Billings - a founder member (I think) of the Leicestershire & Rutland Family History Society.

 

By a quirky coincidence there is a whole chapter about the first recorded Billings (of Rolleston) who was witness to the will of one John Dove esq. John Dove was buried in Wool at Cottingham in 1679. Bury Manor, copy hold land, etc etc is mentioned. Have you ever come across it?

 

Kind regards,

 

Annie Johnson (of Bradshaw/Sturman descent!)
